I had originally assumed this was some sort of webassembly port of the actual Microsoft Paint source code. But it looks like a completely custom JavaScript app built from the ground up to look and work very similarly to Microsoft Paint. That’s actually super impressive, although not quite the technological feat I had originally assumed. It does make this more dubious from a trademark perspective, the author might want to make it more clear it’s not actually Microsoft Paint.

- gkfasdfasdf 7y agoOh wow this is amazing. The win2k image runs Paint, and looks like you can upload and download images.
- soheil 7y agoFascinating, so what happen when you load the same URL inside IE inside win2k? I wonder how many times it can recursively be loaded without the parent browser freezing.

- Wowfunhappy 7y agoRespectfully, that's not really a port.
